Inclusion body myositis (IBM) has been recognized as a distinct type of idiopathic inflammatory myopathy. Previous reports have emphasized the absence of immunologic abnormalities and lack of response to corticosteroid therapy in patients with IBM. We report a case of IBM associated with systemic lupus erythematosus and modest response of the myopathy to corticosteroid therapy. The clinical and immunologic features of IBM are more diverse than previously appreciated.
包涵体肌炎（IBM）已被公认为一种独特类型的特发性炎性肌病。既往报道强调IBM患者不存在免疫异常且对皮质类固醇治疗无反应。我们报告一例与系统性红斑狼疮相关的IBM病例，该肌病对皮质类固醇治疗有一定反应。IBM的临床和免疫特征比之前所认识到的更为多样。
